Rolo takes to water

The lady found out something she started to suspect a week ago…I LOVE WATER! Today she took me to Hungerford Marshes and I had a lovely walk and paddled in the little ford, then wallowed in the thick black mud of the marshes and jumped in the canal. I got a bit of a telling off as I can hear my name and the whistle but I’m just too busy and I know my fun is going to be curtailed. When it comes to water I just can’t help myself. I am a champion doggy paddler. Poor lady has a mild coronary worrying whether I can get out again….later on during the walk back at Hungerford Town I really wanted to hook a duck…but they wouldn’t let me off my lead so I went in anyway…swam and clambered out. This of course washed off the mud but I honked a bit from the canal so I ended up in the sink in the utility room. Washed, shampooed and then put outside to shake dry then towel rubbed and brushed and dried in a rare moment of sunshine…now I smell of damp dog but at least am clean! Now laying on my blanket and cleaning my paws…the lady won’t let me go to sleep for some reason…she’s afraid I won’t go to bed in a couple of hours…but I’m dog tired…..
